Nice job on another F! And to think it only took 2 beers

joeb · « **Reply #4 on:** November 18, 2007, 12:24:08 PM »

The two beers is the start of a new project.

very nice , well done... its almost too clean

Joe definitely gets all the looks when we ride together. Pictures don't do the bike justice, it is one "clean machine" and that airtech seat shortens up the rear making it look all business. And the 836 engine w/ Mrieck deluxe head makes sure that the ride is all business too

Thanks for finally posting some pics Joe. When I get my stuff back from paint we'll have to take the bikes somewhere scenic and get a shot of the pair together

Joeb, nice work!
I was thinking about buying that same seat from air tech. The back of the seat was open correct? What did you do to close it up......it looks awesome.

The red in the head and swingarm are way excellent. Very bold but excellent. Darn nice bike.

I'm not sure how to ask this so I guess I'll just blurt it out. How comfortable/uncomfortable is a caffeinated bike with that kind of seat and typically low handlebars? Maybe comfort's not a consideration when you're goin' a ton.

joeb · « **Reply #13 on:** November 18, 2007, 07:25:59 PM »

Well yes the rear fiberglass section comes open and to cloes it I made a template and had Tap plastic cut a peace and then used a dremal tool to fit just right then two part epoxy to keep it in place.

joeb · « **Reply #14 on:** November 18, 2007, 07:30:41 PM »

Believe or not the seat is more comfortable than you think and the rear sets give you a very good position to the handle bars, very little of your weight is on the handle bars pretty much nuetral nice natural posistion. And ohh yea doing the ton is real nice on the bike but I always seem to be chasing Sconcon around the country side.LOL

Except for that stretch of twisties out by Port Costa where I just watch ya disappear up ahead

Thanks for the seat tip. I like the way that air-tech seat fits on the 750F. Again that F looks great.

joeb · « **Reply #17 on:** November 21, 2007, 04:01:31 PM »

The Air tech seat is a two part seat, the tail section and the seat pan.

Wow just dosn't quite do justice to the bike, very nice work. Where did you get that front faring? I looks good on that bike.
